To change the log-in URL called from the above code, I replaced the below code from comments.php<?php comment_form() ?>
withcomment_form(array('must_log_in'=>"You must be <a href='...'>logged in</a> to post a comment."));
The "..." represents a full URL that was purposefully not included in this forum post. That code change was used to change the login URL, because i'm not using the wp-login.php one.

I am trying to apply the same logic to the below line of code from the php file in the wp-includes directory:'logged_in_as' => '<p class="logged-in-as">' . sprintf( __( 'Logged in as <a href="%1$s">%2$s</a>. <a href="%3$s" title="Log out of this account">Log out?</a>' ), get_edit_user_link(), $user_identity, wp_logout_url( apply_filters( 'the_permalink', get_permalink( $post_id ) ) ) ) . '</p>',

That message is only displayed when a user is logged in and looking at comments section. Would someone provide instructions as per how to hide that message entirely (the logout-related one)? Looking for a theme change or functions.php or bp-custom.php, pls no core changes

When a user is logged out and WordPress settings forces users to be logged in/registered in order to comment on blog posts and a logged out user views the comments section of a blog post, a little line saying "Log in to Reply" is there at the bottom right corner of each comment's little frame thing (see attached screenshot — Capture.JPG). However, when a user is logged in and views the comments section, the line is changed to an icon and a button with text of "Reply" (see attached screenshot — Capture2.JPG).

Solution A: Would you please provide a code snippet (and instructions as to where/how to use) that would hide the "Log in to Reply" hyperlink when a logged out user is viewing that section of the blog post? Make sure that the solution doesn't interfere with the experience of a logged-in user with the icon and "Reply" button.

Solution B: Would you provide a code snippet (and instructions as to where/how to use) that would allow me to modify the link of the "Log in to Reply" hyperlink when a logged out user is viewing that section of the blog post?

Solution A is preferable but if you and/or colleagues are not able to find a way to achieve this, solution B is the next best option.

If you need any site details/credentials to work hands-on to find a solution, just let me know (with instructions on how to send and specifically what is needed). I believe this is a part of WordPress core though and might require a functions.php/bp-custom.php code addition, css trick, or addition to some theme file to modify a call to WordPress core function that deals with this?
